It was my first day of high school, and I was late. My next class, Spanish, scared me. I just could not speak that language. As the bell rang, I ran to the classroom.
At the door, a hand reached out and shook mine firmly. I looked up. A man with large glasses smiled. He introduced himself as Profe, which means teacher in Spanish. Right away, his warm smile and welcoming words eased my fears. That year, I enjoyed his classes a great deal because I learned more than just Spanish.
I admit I only speak a little Spanish. But I try to live out the life lessons I learned from Profe. Every day Profe stood outside his classroom before and after class to give his “hand hug”. After school his room was always filled with students and he would talk to and chat with them--even those not in his class. He taught me that every person is worth your time.
One time, I was rejected(排擠)by my friends, Profe told me, “Linda, life gives you ashes. But learning its lessons will turn those ashes to jewels.” Therefore, I learned to look at my troubles differently and not to fear any difficulty.
In my senior year, I became president of one of the school’s clubs, so I was very busy. Many times I didn’t even have time to buy lunch. He served me by giving me his food as well as advice. He lived out what he taught us to do: serve others.
The author William Arther Ward wrote: “The mediocre(平庸的) teacher tells. The good teacher explains. The superior teacher demonstrates. The great teacher inspires.” Thank you , Profe, for inspiring me.

B.The writer was good at spanish in the end.
C.Profe treated students differently according to their grades.
D.Profe was not a superior teacher.

試題分析:文章介紹作者的西班牙語(yǔ)老師Profe,他不僅教作者西班牙語(yǔ),還教給學(xué)生很多做人的道理,并身體力行,作者從老師那里受益匪淺。

“Get yourself up and make something of yourself,buddy!”Though my mother has passed away,her words are as clear in my head today as when I was a boy.
“Christ!”I said,“I have made something of myself. I want to sleep late as I like.”
“If there’s one thing I can’t stand,it’s a quitter.”Her voice in my head is more powerful than my will to refuse,so I pull myself from bed.
Before I was out of primary school,mother could see I lacked the gifts for either making millions or winning the love of crowds.So she began pushing me toward working with words.Words ran in her family.There seemed to be a word gene that passed down from her mother’s grandfather·
The greatest proof was my mother’s first cousin Edwin.He was the managing editor of the New York Times and had gained a name in his career.
In 1947 1 graduated from Johns Hopkins and applied for a job with the Baltimore Sun as a police reporter.It paid$30 a week .When I complained the wage was shameful for a learned man,mother refused to sympathize.“If you work hard at this job,”she said,“maybe you can make something of it.”
After a while,I was asked to cover diplomats(外交官)at various African embassies. Then,
seven years later I was arranged by the Sun to cover the White House,a task that was as close to heaven as a journalist could get.However,whatever achievement of mine only seemed insignificant in her eyes.Uncle Edwin’s success was really annoying during my early years as a reporter.What a thrill,I thought.
Then,out of my wildest childhood fantasy,the Times came knocking.It was sad that Uncle Edwin had passed away by this time.In 1979 I won the Pulitzer Prize.Unfortunately,my mother’s brain and health broke down the year before,leaving her in a nursing home,out of touch with life forevermore .She never knew of my Pulitzer.
I can probably guess how she’d have responded.“ That’s nice,buddy.It shows if you work hand,you’11 be able to make something of yourself one day,”
小題1:The first three paragraphs are intended to______
A.draw readers’attention to the author’s success
B.remind readers that the road to success is rough
C.serve as an introduction to the author’s mother
D.explain why the author’s mother kept blaming him
小題2:The underlined sentence in Paragraph 4 probably means that tier families____
A.were gifted at languageB.never broke their promise
C.were fond of reading D.stuck to their family belief
小題3:What can we learn about the author
A.He got a good salary working as a police reporter.
B.He lived a rich life with his mother in his childhood.
C.It was proud of her mother to see his winning the Pulitzer Prize.
D.It was beyond his wildest dream that he could work for the Times.
小題4:The author regards Uncle Edwin’s success as a thrill because______.
A.he himself was less smart than Uncle Edwin
B.his mother’s family thought Uncle Edwin to be a good reporter
C.few reporters can become the managing editor of the New York Times
D.Uncle Edwin spared no effort to get the Pulitzer Prize at the cost of his life

She is a cute, quiet girl. As a daughter, she has no secrets from her mother, who is very pleased with her. But recently she has become somewhat mysterious, not so open as before: what if she falls in love, which is too early for a girl of her age. After all, she is reaching the “dangerous stage”. These thoughts have caused trouble in the mother’s mind.
One weekend the girl came to tell her mother that she was going to the cinema with her schoolmates and would return late.

Go to sleep early.”
Next morning, when the mother went to the daughter’s room to do some tidying, she found her diary left at her pillow.

Growing up, I knew I was different. My father had left and he never came back. As I later discovered, the abandonment triggered my anxiety attacks. I feared being alone, unwanted, unpopular, and unloved.
My first attack came in a ninth-grade class: The teacher asked me to walk in front of the class, but I couldn't do it- I was soaked in sweat, shaking. My symptoms began every morning from the moment when I stepped inside the school building.
Throughout my childhood, I was no stranger to the doctor's office. My mother tried everything she could in hope of a breakthrough. There were times I thought suicide could be the only way to make the pain stop.
By age 16, I had shut down socially. Most of my peers were going to parties, playing sports, and dating. But I was a prisoner in my own home.
Then one Sunday morning, my wake-up call came from a magazine article. Freddie Prinze, Jr. was on the cover. The article detailed the pain of losing his father at a young age. I felt as though I were reading my own life story. The only difference? He was now a success.
That article inspired me to explore a new treatment option for myself. I wanted to turn my life around as well. So I hit the library and the Internet, and I began to realize how my negative thoughts controlled my physical well-being.
Immediately, I made a plan to take charge of my life. Shortly after following the items I had listed, I was able to stop seeing a therapist. I never returned to high school, but I did go to college. After graduation, I pursued a career in television news. My relationships have changed for the better, too. I've made new friends and reconnected with many from my past
The anxiety isn't completely gone, but whenever it returns, I know the feeling will pass, and know I have the power to change my life, only if I will give myself a chance.
小題1:The writer's anxiety attacks were mainly caused by         .
A.the high school which he attendedB.the teacher who asked him to walk
C.the writer himself who was fearfulD.the father who left in his childhood
小題2:The breakthrough of the writer's treatment came when________.
A.the mother took him to the doctorB.the writer read a magazine article
C.the writer's pain finally stoppedD.the writer went to college
小題3:What did the writer do after following the plan?
A.He went to see therapists.B.He returned to high school.
C.He contacted his old friends.D.He didn't suffer any attacks.
小題4:The writer wrote this story to tell us________.
A.a(chǎn)nxiety attacks are not lasting if we have proper treatment
B.we shouldn't keep ourselves away from the outside world
C.we can change our lives if we give ourselves a chance
D.fathers are not supposed to abandon their small kids

科目:高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源:不詳 題型:閱讀理解

Someone telephoned me today asking if I would be willing to bring food to a family in need. The mother was having a major operation and would be lying down for several weeks. Of course, I responded with an immediate “Yes!”. As I planned the meal in my head, I reflected on how many times over the years I had been asked to prepare food. I have done so countless times with a very open heart.
But the truly amazing thing is that I have received double over the course of my life. When my mother passed away, our house was filled with fresh dinners for weeks. A woman from the church of our community stopped by each evening with some food. The gift of food was her small way of trying to ease our pain.
Later in my life, when I was on bed rest during my pregnancy with twins, women of the church again stepped in to help. They arranged babysitting for my two-year-old daughter, and brought lovely dinners to our house. Even when I was put in the hospital, my husband would bring cooked meals to my hospital room. How we relied on these dinners to feed my tired husband and young daughter.
Food is all about comfort. It feeds our bodies, but it can also feed our souls. When you hear people talking about their favorite holidays, it usually includes their feelings connected with sharing food.
